See the web site on "Graphic Identity Guide and Regulations" and contact the Office of University Relations at (701)777-2731 with questions and for details about the appropriate visual use of UND's name and prinicipal logos. All products bearing verbiage or symbols protected by UND are subject to review and approval by the University. Go to this site for information about UND's licensing program.
Graphic files are distributed in either .JPG or .GIF formats; for any other types of formats, contact the University Relations Graphic Designer.
Bitmap files are dot-per-dot representations. The apparent "sharpness" depends on the "dots per inch" resolution in which the original file image was created and the extent to which it is being enlarged or reduced. Files in these formats, including: .JPG, .TIF, .GIF, .CGM and .BMP (or .PCT for Macintosh), generally can be imported into the widest variety of popular software applications.
NOTE: These graphics also can be printed out by most popular printers, including laser and inkjet printers.
Vector files, though not listed are available, create images through mathematical instructions. Such graphics maintain their resolution, or "sharpness," regardless of the degree of enlargement or reduction. Typical vector formats are .EPS (encapsulated postscript), .AI (Adobe Illustrator) and .WMF (Windows metafile). Commercial printers prefer graphics to be in either .EPS or .AI format for best results. Metafiles sometimes can be distorted when translated by the imagesetting equipment of commercial printers. Postscript files print satisfactorily only when utilizing printers or software incorporating postscript language. Typically, a non-postscript printer will print only the "header" image (a thumbnail, or low-resolution bitmap representation) when it receives a postscript graphic file. A Windows metafile (.WMF) graphic provides vector quality when printed out through both postscript and non-postscript printers.
For general purposes, bitmap files should be sufficient. If you are preparing a publication for a commercial printer, postscript graphics would be preferred. For help with questions or the preparation of logo arrangements to meet specific needs, contact the Office of University Relations. Regarding colors, PMS 347 in the Pantone® Matching System is the most common specification for "UND green." A brighter green, PMS 354, is used occasionally. When presented in a colored version, the ink specifications for the UND "flame" logo are PMS 347 green for the UND portion and PMS 165 orange for the flames portion. Commercial printers can prescribe process color equivalents when printing full-color publications. The ink colors for the full-color version of the new Sioux logo are black, PMS 480 for the skin color, PMS 347 for the green, PMS 186 for the red, and PMS 123 for the yellow. Again, commercial printers can specify process color equivalents when printing full-color publications.

| UND Logo with Flame |
| The UND logo is a contemporary graphic device intended to represent the University of North Dakota and to unify its presentation in the visual media. The current logo is a modification of the "Centennial logo," which was adopted in 1980 for use with various materials celebrating the 100th anniversary of the University. The current UND logo has been in use since the close of Centennial year activities in 1984. Specific standards approved by the Office of the President regulate the appearance of official stationery and envelopes used by the University and its offices and departments. Go to this site for more information. |

| University Colors |
The colors of PINK and GREEN, which remain the University's official colors, were chosen by the student body in 1889 when planning for UND's first commencement exercises. The choice was inspired by the pink and green of the prairie rose, North Dakota's official state flower, and "suggestive of our green prairies and rosy prospects." The official colors became green and white when it was determined that green and pink would not elicit a proper measure of respect from UND's opponents. In practice, the green and white is expressed in Pantone Matching System's 347 (PMS 347) and the occasional substitution of gray or black for white.
